I would really like to enjoy some all beef or turkey/chicken hot dogs, but every brand I try makes me sick. Unfourtunately, Maple Leaf and Butterball have both made me sick. I have looked for Oscar Myer, but I cannot find them anywhere. Does anyone know of any safe brands here in Canada? Thanks so much.

Sorry, Carrie, we use Maple Leaf Top Dog hot dogs. What about looking for hot dogs manufactured by Mitchell or Olympic? I think they are gluten free. Mitchell's says they don't "hide" ingredients. You'll have to double check gluten-free status though, because I can't remember, and I'm at work so I don't have my list handy.

I actually use Butterball, but Feybe's meats should have gluten free right on them. They make Europeon type weiners which are good as well :D

Can you find Applegate Farms in Canada? I don't know if they are just in the U.S. but they are definitely gluten-free. They come in turkey or chicken that I know of for sure and maybe beef.

Also Wellshire Farms, I believe they have beef, chicken, and turkey hotdogs to choose from (but not totally positive) and they always label their allergen info. Again, not sure if they can be found in Canada.

Freybe's are also casein-free, even though they only say lactose free on the package. Their website says all except two products are casein-free.

Hey, Carriefaith, I got married at your avatar picture.

I like Hebrew National! I even like their motto ("We answer to a higher authority...") :) Only problem for me is that they have sodium nitrite, which is the only thing that has ever given me pimples! :angry:

Thanks everyone for your input. I will try and see if those brands are here in Alberta. I would really like to try Freybe's if they are gluten-free and casein free.

Freybe's is in Alberta. You can find it at Superstore, Safeway, Save-On Foods, Sobeys, Costco. Pretty much anywhere, but the selection varies. I'm not sure if they make hot dogs though.

I don't hink Alberta has Whole Foods, but maybe at Planet Organic you can find Gluten-free Casein-free hotdogs.

Harvest weiners, I've been eating them all the time ever since being diagnosed. Their other products are made with gluten/flour, but I have NEVER had contamination problems.

There are some European Weiners from Freybe's/Grimms, and a few types of smokies, but Harvest is the best. Its made here in SK, but I believe they have a website you could find!

Hi,

I buy wieners by Grimm's Fine Foods. The label says "European Wieners" Labeled gluten free I think I got them at the Co-op.

I use Harvest brand also, the kids have never had any problems. Grimms and Freybe have all sort of sliced meat, pepperoni and smokies etc that are gluten-free (and labled as such). I tried top dog but the kids had unsettled tummies afterwards - not sure if cc or just the other ingredients. Who really knows what's in a hot dog anyway! B)

I use Maple Leaf Top Dog. Freybe's has good lunch meats but I haven't tried their dogs yet.

I have discovered Freybe's and I have been enjoying their lunch meats. Their hot dogs are quite expensive though. Some of the hot dogs brands like Harvest have milk in them. I wish that milk and gluten didn't have to be in almost everything!

Thanks everyone for your help :)

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      Is it gluten?

      @par18, no, Scott's use of the term "false negative" is intentional and appropriate. The "total IGA" test is not a test used to diagnose celiac disease per se. The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the...

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get...

The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the spectrum of components making it up will likely be also, including the celiac disease response spectrum. In other words, IGA deficiency may produce a tTG-IGA score that is negative that might have been positive had there not been IGA deficiency. So, the tTG-IGA negative score may be "false", i.e, inaccurate, aka, not to be trusted.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa
